Westminster Community Charter School is a K–8 Buffalo Charter School with 550 enrolled students. Pride is paramount here—we give our students reasons to love school and to focus on becoming their best selves.

We keep students at the center of our efforts, providing flexible, leveled math instruction, access to rich children’s literature, iPads for grades K–2 and laptops for grades 3–8, advanced curriculum incorporating Common Core and next-generation science standards, Spanish and Algebra. A partnership with the University at Buffalo brings STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) to the classroom. Our day is extended by an hour to allow students exposure to Art, Music and Drama. Our after-school programs include science and technology clubs, wrestling, track, media, and cooking and yoga clubs, just to name a few. Over 60 percent of students are engaged in enriching clubs and experiences during the year.

Special Partnerships – Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) partnership with UB. There is also a Kaleida Health Clinic, food is prepared from scratch by Chef Jason Mueckl and students have the use of a new 21st Century Media Center.
